Get Started Guides

CEC’s “Get Started” guides are free resources designed to help you make changes the easy way. Covering a broad spectrum of daily decisions – like picking lightbulbs for your home, finding a carpool to work, or getting solar panels installed on your roof – these guides are a great place to start supporting clean energy in the Santa Barbara region.

Once you get started with your own projects, tell CEC about it and share with your networks to help us grow the movement. Sharing personal experiences with your friends and family can inspire them to make changes in their own homes and lifestyles.
